Is this a good first LEGO set?

Yes. The pieces are large, easy to grip and made for children from 18 months, and the familiar objects give a toddler something to build right away.

How does it compare with a themed DUPLO set?

A themed set builds one model, such as a farm or a train. This box is open-ended: plain bricks plus a car, figures and everyday objects, so play depends on the child's imagination.

65 pieces: an assortment of DUPLO bricks, a car with moving wheels, a roof, a window, flowers, bread, DUPLO figures and bricks numbered 1, 2 and 3, all in a storage brick box.

Does it come with instructions?

It includes a simple guide with building ideas for parents and toddlers. There is no large instruction booklet because the set is meant for free building.

Is it safe for a child who still mouths toys?

DUPLO bricks are made for children from 18 months and are too large to swallow. Check pieces regularly for cracks, as with any toy.
